Synthesis and therapeutic potential of quinoline derivatives

Abstract Quinolines are nitrogen-containing bicyclic compounds that are widely found throughout Nature in various forms. Quinoline derivatives are utilized in the areas of medicine, food, catalysts, dyes, materials, refineries, electronics, etc. The quinoline nucleus is present in numerous biological compounds, e.g., antimalarial, antimicrobial, antimycobacterial, antidepressant, anticonvulsant, antiviral, anticancer, antihypertensive, platelet-derived growth factor (PDGF) receptor tyrosine kinase (RTK) inhibitory, antiinflammatory, antioxidant, and anti-human immunodeficiency virus (HIV) agents. However, owing to the swift development of new molecules containing this nucleus, many research reports have been generated in a brief span of time. There therefore seems to be a requirement to collect recent information in order to understand the current status of the quinoline nucleus in medicinal chemistry research, focusing in particular on the numerous attempts to synthesize and investigate new structural prototypes with more effective antimalarial, antimicrobial, and anticancer activity..
